Critical: Date Marking - Ready-to-Eat - Potentially Hazardous Food - Date Marking* Observation: The prepared ready-to-eat (RTE) containers in the refrigeration unit is not properly dated for disposition. A copy of the regulation regarding code-dating was left for the operator to review.
Correction: Mark the name and "consume by" date on the container of RTE foods at the time of preparation if the food is to be held for more than 24 hours. If the food is held at 41°F or below the food shall be served or sold within 7 calendar days. Some harmful bacteria continue to grow even at refrigeration temperatures so limiting the amount of time in storage limits the amount of growth allowed for these bacteria.

The sandwich prep. unit and the Superior Reach-in Unit also had build-up in the bottom of both units.
